Curtain Call (Demo) Lyrics

[Intro]

[Verse 1]
It's a, a strange thing
Just a miracle dream
To be at peace with a fling
What if I'm more than crushes?
And moved past more than just lust
To feel it deep inside
Crying out to my trust
It's indescribably pushin' it
My mind is uncertainty
Beside I want a love that's all certain
Beyond a doubt I want to shout it out
I will shout it out to the world
To find a woman with certainty
Being my whole life earnin'
But, my baby, what's burnin'?
Discernin' it comes from the heart
That the mind of the eyes
A dark curtain containin'
Capable collisions of hearts

[Chorus]
Here we go (Here we go)
You and I (You and I)
I am me (I am me)
And you are mine (You are mine)
I'mma sing it out (Sing it out)
I play it loud
At the curtain call
Baby, take a bow, woah
Who knew what (Who knew what)
We all want (We all want)
Is just a simple situation? (Just a simple situation)
I'mma follow my heart (I will follow)
It's led me well (It has led me)
Well, I'm here with you, today
[Verse 2]
When I first met you, (ooh)
I was so short of breath
I stared like a child who (ooh)
Who was faking as deaf
You smiled and I laughed (ooh)
And you asked me some questions
But baby, all I kept thinkin'
Was taking first kissin' lessons (first kissin' lessons)
Blessings seem to be pourin' (ah)
From right at the start
You searched deep down inside and know to follow your heart (ah)
I followed this path (ah)
It's leading to you
I've arrived at the 'X', baby, tell me what to do (tell me what to do)

[Chorus]
Here we go (Here we go)
You and I (You and I)
I am me (I am me)
And you are mine (You are mine)
I'mma sing it out (Sing it out)
I play it loud
At the curtain call
Baby, take a bow, woah
Who knew what (Who knew what)
We all want (We all want)
Is just a simple situation? (Just a simple situation)
I'mma follow my heart (I will follow)
It's led me well (It has led me)
Well, I'm here with you, today
[Bridge]
What does it mean to be a perfect match? (ooh)
I love, I love to be so far from perfect
What does it mean to be a perfect catch? (ooh)
I love, I love, I love to love you lady; never, ever leave me
Believe me (ooh)
I can see we'll be the small seed that grows into the stars
(Ooh) It's a capable collision of hearts, yeah

[Chorus]
Here we go (Here we go)
You and I (You and I)
I am me (I am me)
And you are mine (You are mine)
I'mma sing it out (Sing it out)
I play it loud
At the curtain call
Baby, take a bow, woah
Who knew what (Who knew what)
We all want (We all want)
Is just a simple situation? (Just a simple situation)
I'mma follow my heart (I will follow)
It's led me well (It has led me)
Well, I'm here with you, today

[Outro]
